One novice witch. One cursed sorcerer. A slow-burn romantasy series drenched in darkness.
Helena
For a lifetime I believed myself peculiar, someone discontent with the Alpine village I call home. A loveless marriage and tedium awaited me…until an encounter with a cursed sorcerer awakened me to a realm of magic.
I'm a Teuton witch of light. The only witch in my village. The only witch who caught the attention of the reclusive priest inhabiting a fortress atop a snowcapped mountain. The only witch to view him as a human soul, not a wicked vampire damned to hell.
When he returns to me, I'll join him without question. Even if my family disapproves. Even if it means leaving home forever.
Konstantin
After falling under the filial curse, my demon lord set me loose upon the earth with a single stipulation. Just one rule. Don't succumb to love's cruel sway.
No problem at all. Or so I thought.
I never expected to cross paths with a defiant witch who challenged my grim fate. Or to concoct an elaborate lie about her to protect us both from infernal punishment. And from the wrath of my ruthless peer.

C.L. Carhart has been writing since the age of 4, dabbling in everything from children’s books, to fantasy, to historical fiction. Eventually, her lifelong interest in European history inspired her to create a mystical other-world based on the Teutonic people groups. Her Teutonic Fantasy Realm is chock full of heart-pounding adventure, dark magic, and swoon-worthy romance.
A book addict, stray cat rescuer, and unashamed metalhead, you can find her plotting out fresh stories deep in the night with a can of diet soda and a fun-sized panther infringing on her progress.
